Jukka,
Do you know of any such efforts going on in the current JSR-283 spec?

I hear you, I've seen the same issue come up repeatedly. A JDBC-JCR
bridge, even if just a read-only level 1 implementation, would be a
very cool thing to have. I recently had some success to implementing
such a bridge for XML documents (which of course are much closer to
the JCR data model), so I wouldn't be surprised if sooner or later we
did have a JDBC bridge, but as of now the best option probably a
one-time migration as you mentioned.
